Numan... '56 was my liberal arts year for classical music... I can remember long hours in music "lab"... with headphones... and parsing Vivaldi and Bach... thetic 1 and anacrusic two... and I thought it would be a "gut" course. And hitch-hiking 150 miles each way from Maine on Saturday and Sunday to visit future bride at Boston College... Imagine... hitch hiking...


My-O-My, Bob,

I'm afraid that I was way more interested in latter songs of the Inkspots and like groups that had moved out of the 40's genre to R&B and RnR. Then how could anybody resist greats like Bill Haley and His Comets, Chuck Berry, Big Joe Turner, Carl Perkins, Hank Williams, and of course the emerging Jerry Lee Lewis, Elvis, Little Richard, and up to Buddy Holly?

Vivaldi and Bach and those cats just weren't cool, daddio... cool

I was slobbering over Grace Kelly, Natalie Wood, Sandra Dee, and Tuesday Weld (just to name a few).
